A Day In The Life Of A Child Poem by Fay Slimm
A Day In The Life Of A Child
Cheeks dimpling
Two eyes gleam
Lips parting.
Baby's smiling.
Nose crinkling
Red mouth curls
Eyes are twinkling.
Baby's clowning.
Toes gripping
Two knees bend.
Feet are moving,
Baby's walking.
Mind wandering,
Gaze intense,
Brow is puckering,
Baby's 'pottying'
Lips smacking,
Two jaws race,
Cheeks are bulging,
Baby's eating.
Head bobbing,
Fingers twirl,
Knees are knocking,
Baby's dancing.
Eyes closing,
Two hands still.
Senses dozing,
Ssssh - Baby's sleeping.
Hello Fay and that was just about picture perfect, I felt as if I was watching the little one through out. Great read! Loyd
! The most wonderful aroma in this world, is the smell of a baby in a fathers arms, till they need changing of corse!
I like the simplicity of yjis one, just like the life of a child.
divine. best word i can use. fay, you have a wonderful way with words.
The last four lines are enough. You have rightly hit it. We can also experience the sleep.
Simplicity and honesty in your tone makes this a wonderful read... Thanks. Deva

A precious little poem, inspired methinks by old nursery rhymes. Love the rhythm, the simplicity of the language and the beat of the piece. Yes, a lovely children's poem for grownups to enjoy. (or vice versa if you like?) love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
